Reply to WC Skincast: Updates & Questions in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

What's the average time spent making a WB? When and how did you two and others get started in Skinning? Where did Neil Banfield start? Who's been at WC the longest? Who started WC? Who founded Stardock and when? What's the craziest thing that has ever happened at WC/Stardock (don't forget your PG rating) What were computers like at the dawn of skinning? Pick any question, I'll be honored. Looking forward to the broadcast,old two meter man,myself, with a

I hope that a solution will be found soon for you. Impulse really is better imo. Please forgive my dumb question but in the meantime, why can't the more "overdue" updates be forced to show in SDC, which still works for almost everyone? At least 'til all the kinks are worked out. Good Luck to you,OpusCroakus

It wasn't available(no update button) but was listed.I'm sticking with Impulse from now on, bugs and all. 3/30/2008 was the date of the update, I posted the # already. I hadn't used TM much before so I can't tell you what's new.Oddly enough, My Colors themes DO appear in TM, but not the other way around. :p

WMP11 Skin problem in Stardock Support General WinCustomize Forums

I have a big problem with the WMP skin Storm located here:https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?skinid=819&libid=9 I dl'd it yesterday but was to busy to try it out. I just tried to load it and it crashes wmp11 big-time and closes the program. It will let me relaunch in full mode but on the skinchooser menu, Storm will crash it before I can delete it.

Just dl'd Diamond,even though I already had the WB,to give Quest some company.I've had great results at c|net,even their newsletter is good. but they do have a flaw. If you set a search filter to "free" they often lump shareware,crippleware, and timed demo's into the same catagory.Some people, myself excluded, may often feel that they have been mislead. I've read it in many reveiws on the site, it's a major gripe. Google "free software" and download .com will be at the top of the list.That's how

Outstanding job on the reveiw and thanks for the mention.I use vista so if I spot anything "strange" I'll let you know.Btw, Kitty Malones stuff is awesome but the dark look is ruined (for me anyway) by magic pink on her earlier work : Keep up the good work. :CONGRAT: p.s. Did you try intoxik8ed by Night Train? Looks/works good and it's [B]very[/B] green.
